Quest: Speak with Gryphon Commander Urik at the gryphon station in Wintergarde Keep
Description
Lord Fordragon has led a crushing assault against Arthas at the Wrathgate. In response to this affront, Arthas has sent Naxxramas down upon us. While Kel’Thuzad hides in the floating citadel, his ground commander, Thel’zan, lays siege to Wintergarde Keep. The lower village is already lost and any chance of extracting survivors from the ruins diminishes by the minute.
We must act quickly! Report to Gryphon Commander Urik at the gryphon station at once! He’ll get you up to speed.
Leave me!
Completion
Urik points to a gryphon.
Have you ever ridden one of those? It’s simple, friend. Just hop on and tell it where to go.

Quest: Rescue 10 Helpless Wintergarde Villagers and return to Gryphon Commander Urik at Wintergarde Keep.
Description
With this whistle you can call down a Wintergarde gryphon. Mount the creature and head towards the ruins of Wintergarde Village, now known as the Carrion Fields, southeast of here. Once at the fields, keep your eyes peeled for helpless Wintergarde villagers. When you spot one, fly low and use the gryphon to pick them up. Return the rescued villager here, to the gryphon station. There are Scourge all over the place so you’ll need to keep your wits about you, hero. Good luck!

Quest: Orik Trueheart at Dawn’s Reach in Dragonblight wants you to hear the tales of a Forgotten Peasant, Forgotten Rifleman, Forgotten Knight and Forgotten Footman.
Description
The toxins in the murkweed elixir will render you unconscious. So powerful is the effect of the murkweed that even your spirit will be fooled, allowing you to temporarily enter the world of the dead. Once a spirit, you must speak to the ghostly denizens of the Forgotten Shore. Seek out the cause of their anguish and return to me. Remember, , these spirits were once Alliance soldiers. Treat them with respect, honor and dignity.
Now, with elixir in hand, venture south to the Forgotten Shore.
Completion
Orik’s eyes fill with tears. They don’t know. None of them know! They think Arthas to be some great hero, when in truth it was Arthas who ordered the ships to be burned. It was Arthas who left us all for dead in this frozen wasteland! Orik weeps.
Not all of the soldiers from the Prince’s fleet perished in the freezing winter. I was only a lad when I was given the chance to battle the Scourge… to save our home from certain destruction. I took that chance, .
